However, she isn’t the one who might go to extreme lengths to be in the race. “They say it's the survival of the fittest but I am not the type of person who is so hungry that they would do anything.

I just get away from everybody because no human is really well equipped for encounters of that sorts. I try to keep myself away from all of that. I know how to have a boundary,” said the actress.
